Spring, one of Scarsdale’s four finest seasons, has returned! There is so much to behold, from dead earthworms on your walkway to the thick coating of pollen on your windshield that cheerfully greets you each morning.

Just as life beautifully springs anew at this time of year, Scarsdale is bursting with things to marvel at and admire. Take, for example, the heroism of the Girl Scout Daisies, a group of lovely 6-year-olds who sprang into action when thieves snatched cookies from the troop’s selling table. Armed with nothing more than hard-soled sneakers and a passion for sweet justice, the Daisies quickly organized into a vigilante gang and made sure those thugs got the beatdown they deserved.

And then there’s the indefatigable leadership of Superintendent of Schools Dr. Drew Patrick and the Board of Education. Rather than bother Scarsdale with a democratic vote on the 2026-2027 school budget, they created and approved a sensible one all on their own. Result: Residents will see a 99.8% drop in their school taxes! For more details, read this article.

From Martine’s new weight-loss croissants (click here for more info) to a brand-new award for people who contribute nothing to Scarsdale’s civic welfare (read “Winner Of the New Scarsdale Spork Announced”), you won’t want to miss what’s inside the Insider this week. Enjoy!

Yours in Scarsdale love,
